(Radio Iowa) — Republicans at the statehouse have unveiled a proposal to give the legislature and governor more authority in choosing Iowa judges. Iowa governors would continue nominating eight members of the panel that interviews and recommends a slate of nominees for judicial openings, but senators would no longer review and vote on the governor’s appointments. And the Iowa Bar Association — representing the state’s legal profession — would no longer name the other eight members of the Judicial Nominating Commission. Representative Steve Holt of Denison says under the G-O-P alternative, the top four legislative leaders in the House and Senate — from both parties — would nominate half of the commission members.
“Much more accountability for the people,” Holt said, “because now everyone in this process that would be naming people to this commission would be elected representatives of the people.”
Iowa Supreme Court Chief Justice Mike Cady, author of the 2009 opinion that legalized same-sex marriage in Iowa, was elected by the other justices as their chief eight years ago. The G-O-P’s plan also would require Iowa Supreme Court Justices to vote every two years on who among them should be chief justice. “And we think that just brings more accountability to him from his own justices on the court,” Holt says.
Senate Democratic Leader Janet Pedersen says Republicans are trying politicize Iowa’s court system because they’ve never gotten over the court’s 2009 same-sex marriage ruling.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — After decades of failed attempts, work has begun on a $73 million project to restore a once elegant but long abandoned hotel in Sioux City. The Sioux City Journal reports that developer Lew Weinberg and real estate company Restoration St. Louis are working to restore the Warrior Hotel. The hotel was built in 1930 but closed in 1976. The adjacent Davidson Building is also being remodeled, and the two sites are slated to be turned into a hotel, luxury apartments and retail spaces.
Amy and Amrit Gill own Restoration St. Louis. The Gills are researching the hotel’s Art Deco design, with the goal of depicting some of the building’s original style in some areas while also adding modern amenities.
Work is expected to be completed in 2020.
